Resumo: Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) has gained significant traction, especially within the French market, yet its performance in comparison to conventional indexes remains a topic of debate. This study aims to understand whether a French investor can achieve superior returns with an SRI portfolio, constructed using publicly available information and ESG criteria, compared to conventional indexes. Applying a quantitative methodology, the research examined the performance of an SRI stocks portfolio, selected from the Global-100 ranking, against conventional benchmarks over a 66-month period. The findings revealed that the SRI portfolio, despite certain limitations, has the potential to offer competitive returns, often surpassing traditional benchmarks. This underscores the growing significance of SRI strategies within the French investment landscape.

Este estudo tem como objetivo compreender se um investidor francês pode obter retornos superiores com uma carteira ISR, construída utilizando informações publicamente disponíveis e critérios ESG, em comparação com índices convencionais. Aplicando uma metodologia quantitativa, o estudo analisou o desempenho de uma carteira de ações ISR, selecionada a partir da classificação Global-100, em comparação com índices de referência convencionais ao longo de um período de 66 meses. Os resultados revelaram que a carteira de ações ISR, apesar de certas limitações, tem potencial para oferecer rendimentos competitivos, ultrapassando frequentemente os índices de referência tradicionais. Este facto sublinha a importância crescente das estratégias de ISR no panorama de investimento francês.2024-02-09T18:24:12Z2023-10-27T00:00:00Z2023-10-272023-09info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/30982TID:203476743engBarbot, Colininfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-11T01:18:40Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/30982Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T02:37:33.460859Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
